    Default VR 5lt engine light problem

    I have just replaced the inlet manifold gaskets in my 5lt and since then everytime i start the car it will run for a couple minutes then the engine light will come on.
    I checked for error codes and it is telling me error code 15, I replaced the coolant sensor and it hasn't fixed the problem.
    Any comments will be a great help thanks.

    if its the coolant temp error, it will have to be related to it. How closely have you looked at the wiring.
    Heres some reference materialsoyou can start testing http://www.injectronics.com.au/bulle...ulletin_18.pdf

    Fixing Wiring To Coolant Temp Sensor

    See how you go it cant be anything too dramatic, will be somthing simple when you find it.

    Still can't find the problem.
    Would it be better to pull the inlet manifold off again?
